Hey folks I’m literally just onto the 3rd week of flowering for my girl, she started producing pistons and budlets around the 5th of September and has showed progress ever since. My only issue now is the temperatures outside aren’t getting much higher than 14 degrees with October coming in and Im wondering will this stunt the plants growth or completely stop it leaving the plant in limbo? I guess in theory I’m asking what’s the coldest temperatures I can get away with so this girl can produce its final harvest? Yes this is an outdoor grow outdoors in a 10litre pot I am able to bring it inside at nights and keep it nice and warm at room temperature which is around 24 degrees so night time frost is not an issue. Posting some pictures below showing the current stage the buds are in, any advice would be much appreciated and thank you as always

How would I go about finishing it inside if I don’t have a light to hit it with man? I’m using the sun as my source of light just and have nothing to use as a light source indoors. I’m based in the north of Ireland our winter won’t properly set in until the end off November but it’s dropping to around 13-14 degrees during the day time now

depends on genetics. I'm usually down to like 2-5C(i think you are speaking in Celsius) or like 34-41F. These will still finish. i didn't even bother with frost blankets. As I'm experimenting with "frost genetics". Of the 8 girls in this 'gorilla' grow, 4 made it to flower. All of them survived 3 days in a row of frost. With one having more frost burn than the other. at that range i wouldnt worry. At least with yours you can move it in and out between the frosts looks like. Outside during the day, inside at night is my advice. Just being cautious of the darkness and all that. dont put it in your kitchen and leave a light on all night. Easiest route to go with for finishing outside in my opinion.

Great info mate thank you very much for taking the time to explain that. Yes i also am talking about celsius in terms of the degrees as I’m based in the UK, the most were dropping down to at night is around 12 degrees but I was worried the plant wouldn’t grow any more in the flowering stage and just sort off be stuck in limbo lol. Yes mate I bring the plant in at nights now and leave it in my bathroom which is being kept in darkness as the light in there is broke atm lmao, temperatures are nice indoors for it just wish I could finish her in here with a light but I digress the sun is still my friend, what’s left off it anyways

You can finish it indoors. but when that is not an options you will be fine. you could easily throw a light in that bathroom on a timer. But honestly it wont matter. My plants have almost grown in lower temperatures then you are concerned with. Outside the temps at peak of summer thats been my entire flower. Im of the mindset -if mine will be fine, so will yours. Now getting to finish them completely.... at least in my case being stuck in the ground is a different story.
